Add pool lights for safety — Advanced Pools, Inc. contractors explain
Owning your own swimming pool means you can swim after dark if you’d like. Night time swimming is relaxing, especially after a long day of working or being a parent! If you want to swim at night, though, the darkness of the water can be a bit off putting for some people. Additionally, night time swimming can be dangerous if you can’t see what you’re doing.
When you’re having your swimming pool constructed, talk with your swimming pool contractors from Advanced Pools. Inc. about the installation of lights in the pool to amp up the safety of swimming after the sun goes down. You will want to consider adding wall and floor lighting — either during construction or as part of a pool remodeling project. Today’s pool lights come in a wide array of colors and can be operated remotely allowing you the option of turning the lights on and off and choosing different colors to set the mood.
If you’re not certain how the lights will look or how well they will illuminate the pool after dark, ask your contractor for an introduction to one of his customers for whom he has installed the in pool lighting so you can see it in “real life” and get a feeling for what it will look like.
Look into LED lights and also, consider whether you just want white lights or whether you want colored bulbs. There are some lights that are a combination of white and color and you can choose what color to turn on when night falls.
If you’re not in the market for a swimming pool renovation project to install pool lighting, consider investing in floating pool lights. While they may not completely illuminate the depths of the pool water they do add to the safety and ambiance of the pool when your swimming at night.
Before you make any decisions on the type of pool lighting you want for your swimming pool, take time to look at pools that have the type of lighting you think you might want. Here’s to safe, fun nighttime swimming!
